Card Design: Gerda Steiner Designs Progressive Challenge…June

Hello there! It is time to get my progressive card for the Gerda Steiner Designs Progressive Challenge uploaded.

Check out the sweet image that we got to work with this month...

Everyone who played along in last month's challenge received Hello Friend for free. If you decide to hop on and play along in the Gerda Steiner
Designs Progressive Challenge, then you can purchase this digital by
clicking HERE (or on the watermark above to head to its location in the store). This
way you'll receive next month's digital stamp for free.

Here are my card and details...

General Info:

This card has been created 100% digitally and then layered in a Mock Up (courtesy of Frisk Shop). I will print it out and assemble it a later date.

The grass was created from a Public Domain image courtesy of Holger Langmaier (known as Holgers Fotografie over at Pixabay).

Digital Embellishment Details:

I have used a template to create the pennant shape under the sentiment. This template was designed by Marisa Lerin, Pixel Scrapper.

The accent strip on the end was created from a Public Domain image courtesy of Public Domain Pictures (Pixabay).

INSIDE

OVERALL Digital Sentiment Details:

The sentiments on both the front and inside were created by Paulette
from Create with TLC. For great freebies and inspiration be sure to
click HERE to go to Paulette's blog and for awesome sets for purchase, click HERE to go to the home page of the store. Both have been recoloured to suit the purposes of this project.

Digital Paper Products:

The turtle paper, used for the background on the front and inside, is one that I made for an Under the Sea Sampler that I made a while back (as a request) that hopefully will end up in a full paper pack of the same theme one of these days.

The green accent strip was created using one of my own grunge templates.

Digital Embellishments:

I have used basic shapes in Photoshop Elements to create matting in
behind the image and the sentiments.

I have applied shadow layer styles to give certain elements some depth. These styles were designed by Sheila Reid, Pixel Scrapper.

About Me

Hi! My name is Lisa and welcome to my blog. Whether drawing, painting, cross-stitching, card making, or doing nail art, I've been 'creating' since I was knee high to a grasshopper. At the end of 2011, I really started getting interested in the world of card making and nail art. I knew that there were already a lot of creative card makers, digi stamp designers, and nail artists out there and I continue to learn a lot from them, but I needed a place to showcase my work so I could enter some challenges and as a result, created this blog in October of 2012.
I live in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. I am happily married to my college sweetheart and we have been married for over 27 years. We were never blessed with children so our 'babies' have always been cats. Currently, we have one female tabby named Marigold.
Thanks so much for stopping by. I hope you have a blast!
